This review is from: 101 Granny Squares (Paperback)
I have loads of crochet stitch books including a few just on granny squares. Darla Sims is important in the crochet field so I ordered this sight unseen. The squares were all done in worsted wt yarn with size H hook. Finished size, gauge on the first two rows, pattern notes, special stitches and instructions written out are given for each square. A good color photo heads up each square. The sizes vary and some are in only one color while others have two or three. One problem with this book is the sentence on the front cover which says "mix and match these fabulous granny squares to create your own beautiful designs." If you do that, you need to find the same size squares unless you don't care and plan to just sew them together any old way. More serious is the poorly written instructions. Of the first 6 squares, only 4 worked out. I completed the first but it was written very badly. The fifth just couldn't be done. I found one very similar to it in the Jean Leinhauser "101 crochet squares" and successfully made it. I then returned to this book and again failed. I can only recommend this to very skilled crocheters who are looking for more grannies and who enjoy a good puzzle.

This review is from: 101 Granny Squares (Paperback)
101 Granny SquaresThese are beautiful designs which require some skill. I've read reviews criticizing the connection of the squares. They don't have to be along the entire side. Use your imagination; be creative. It would have been nice, though, if the authors had included ideas for combining the squares.

This review is from: 101 Granny Squares (Paperback)
This book has great quality pictures of the squares. Several of the squares patterns I already have from other sources. My only complaint is, like so many others, think that by adding a row to a square, makes it a new pattern.
